Eastern Europe do not want to deal with this problem and that is why it is so wide spread. They do not recognize the seriousness of the problem.

monsoons are a major factor in controlling the climate of s-e asia. agriculture in india is controlled by monsoons. in india we get 'south west monsoon winds' and 'north east monsoon winds' .s-e monsoons are the winds that bring major moisture to india. they blow during summers. it is the south east 'trade' winds which cross the equator and become s-w monsoons.(ferrel's law). picking up moisture from the arabian sea. n-e monsoons are experienced during winters. the give rain only in some part of india esp. coromandel coast. himalays are an important relief feature for s-e asia they block the cold 'siberian wind's to enter. thus preventing the region from becoming a cold desert. they also block the s-w monsoon winds and prevent them from going away. they aare forced to shed all the moisture in india . himalyan range acts as a barrier for these winds. mountains are also home for wildlife and rare plants. enjoy!!

i think asia has more cultures than europe because asia has an arab culture( lebanon), south east asian culture ( malaysian), east asian culture ( japanese) and south asian culture ( indian). So i reckon that you go to asia it is more exciting and lots to explore.
2 :
I think Asia. If you're not Asian that is!! Asian culture is TOTALLY different to any Western culture you can experience. The lifestyles in many Asian countries are different, traditions, holidays, even just daily things that a person from an Asian country does, which a Westerner wouldn't realise is a long standing tradition. However, all nationalities have their own culture which is never entirely the same as ours, so even if you don't want to go to Europe that much, it will still be an exciting and interesting experience.

as asia have more culture shock,while europe has almost the same culture and race,while in asia ,there has india,chinese,malay,arab and japanese.each has different kind of culture that you can explore.in asia you can luxury shopping in singapore,hong kong and tokyo and budget shopping in bangkok and jarkata,asia also has very good beaches you can relax such as bali and maldives.or religious place you can just explore like tibet,nepal,bhutan or india?even thought i love europe but in reality asia is a must explore place in the world!dun wait just go asia and live your whole life just to explore whole asia?

yes I agree. In my opinion, asia has a lot of culture compared to the continent of Europe, a wide variety of arts including dance, drawing (tattoos, paintings), wooden sculptures, weapons and traditional celebrations, and others. The place is also still natural, so many areas that are rarely or never even encroached upon humans because the terrain is difficult and hidden. But the most important in Asia is still a lot of forests and trees so that the air is fresh and the people are friendly society. http://www.shvoong.com/travel/adventure/2019607-save-makotek/

Philippines. My wife was from there. I like it when i stayed with her and her family.

Well South Asia consists of India, Bangladesh, Pakistan and Nepal but NOT the Philippines. I would say India is a better place to live in but all of the other three countries are also good. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/India
